Mac Updates Not working
Created: 11 Jul 2012 | Updated: 11 Jul 2012 | 3 comments
This issue has been solved. See solution.
I have SEPM 12.1.101.401 running liveupdates from this management console using GUP also. My problem is that Mac updates are not getting sent down to the clients. I believe that my system is not downloading updates from Symantec anyway as shown in the picture i only have the options for Windows 32/64.
Any advice would be welcome.

Hello,
Unfortunately, the SEPM is not able to host or make available content (definitions or product updates) for SEP for Mac clients. All updates must occur through LiveUpdate, either from Symantec's servers, or from an internal LiveUpdate server using LiveUpdate Administrator (LUA). Please see 'Using the LiveUpdate Administrator on a PC to download updates for Symantec Endpoint Protection/Symantec AntiVirus 10 for Macintosh clients' for information on how to configure LUA for this content. Note: it is not recommended or supported for LUA and SEPM to be on the same physical server.
